vBQuiz 1.0
NOTE: all functionality-impairing bugs have been fixed. The attached files should work well on just about any PHP installation.
What's it do?
It allows you to setup a quiz center on your boards quickly and easily. This quiz center is FULLY templated, integrated with vBulletin, and has an advanced Admin script for managing the quizzes, categories, and questions. Here's an example: Movie Forums - Quizzes
A few of its features...
Tracks all results and displays high scores.
Upon completion, users are given a total quiz breakdown of the quiz, showing them how they fared on each question, and, on the ones they missed, showing them the correct answer.
Upon completion, users are shown a graphical bar representing their score, and a graphical bar representing the average score for the quiz. They are also emailed their information.
Main quiz page calculates and displays the easiest and most difficult quizzes automatically.
Quizzes can be split up into categories.
Quizzes can be approved or disapproved easily to add/remove them from public view/use.
Full integration with the Who's Online? page...IE: "Viewing Quizzes" or "Viewing So and So Quiz" and even "Taking So and So Quiz"
Admin Abilities:
Disallow multiple quiz takings.
Toggle to disinclude quiz results coming from the author of the quiz.
Change the display order of the answers to each question.
Add multiple questions and answers at once (no limit).
That's it! Don't forget, however, to read ALL of the instructions.txt file in the enclosed vbquiz.zip file. It'll help guard against some common bugs.
Files Enclosed (in vbquiz.zip)
- instructions.txt (read it!)
- quiz.php (upload to main forum dir)
- admin_quiz.php (upload to admin dir)
- install_quiz.php (upload to admin dir and then run)
Enjoy!
Also: a HUGE, HUGE, HUGE thanks to GamerForums for beta testing this hack for me. His help was completely invaluable and surely saved me a lot of work in the long run. Thanks!

i was wondering if there was any way to have "Quizzes" displayed as a category on the forum index, with the quiz categories as forums, and then the quizzes in the individual category forums, displayed as posts or something similar?
$quizzes = $DB_site->query("SELECT q.quizid, q.quiztitle, q.description, q.timestamp,
SUM(r.totalcorrect) AS correct, COUNT(r.resultid) AS total
FROM quiz q
LEFT JOIN quiz_results r
ON (q.quizid = r.quizid)
WHERE q.approve = 1
$clause GROUP BY q.quizid ORDER BY q.timestamp DESC
LIMIT $start, $per_page");
change to
PHP Code:
$quizzes = $DB_site->query("SELECT q.quizid, q.quiztitle, q.description, q.timestamp,
SUM(r.totalcorrect) AS correct, COUNT(r.resultid) AS total
FROM quiz q
LEFT JOIN quiz_results r
ON (q.quizid = r.quizid)
WHERE q.approve = 1
$clause GROUP BY q.quizid ORDER BY q.quiztitle ASC
LIMIT $start, $per_page");
Thanks man. You rock! This will make finding a particular quiz to take 10x easier.
After over 3 weeks of testing, I have one complaint.
Users are registering now simply to take the quizzes and not posting on the forums. I wouldn't mind this, but even users that haven't verified their e-mail address are able to take the quizzes. Is there any way to stop them from being able to do this?
I didn't want to wade through 46 pages, but I had to make an adjustment in order for the percentages to work right. The % correct at the bottom was showing the right amount, but the % correct at the top was not (on the results page) It was showing 6 out of 6 - 102%
Anyway, here's the change I made, if it hasn't already been documented:
